My need for my cherished VX Omega Estate (very little use these days) is diminishing.
I will have had the car 10 years in March.
Very well looked after regardless of cost and it has been a grand servant and fun too (3.0ltr V6 Elite).
I don't really want to sell the car because for what I could get for her (£32k new) I'd rather keep it.
I spend most of my time in the Sprinter and then the choice between my W210 and the Omega always sees me driving the 320CDI.
Keeping the car though, means the expense of tax and insurance etc..
So the question is can I have my cake and eat it?
If I hired out the car (long term) for say, £125.00 per month I would still own it but would be happy that it was in daily use.
I know I'd possibly have problems with the insurance side of things but are there any other pitfalls or even advantages to this notion?
All suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Paul.
